Working with a new asylum attorney should feel structured. Here's how the first two conversations with Arvand usually go, from the moment you request a consult to the day representation begins.

Arvand discusses fees during intake so the arrangement fits the matter. Contingency, hourly, and flat-fee options are all common in asylum practice — ask which fits.

• How much does it cost to hire Arvand for a asylum case?

  Cost depends on the type of matter, the fee model (contingency, flat, hourly), and how contested the case becomes. Arvand walks through the likely range during the consult so there are no surprises.

• Does Arvand offer a free consultation?

  Arvand charges for the initial consult; that fee is credited toward representation if you retain Arvand's office. Some asylum attorneys offer free consults — check Arvand's current terms during booking.

• How long do asylum cases in California typically take?

  Simple asylum matters can wrap in a few weeks; disputed cases can run 6–18 months from intake to resolution, longer if the matter goes to trial. Arvand gives a realistic estimate for your facts at the consult — vague answers here are a red flag.

• Can Arvand take my case if I'm outside Beverly Hills?

  Arvand is licensed in California. Matters governed by California law are the natural fit. Out-of-state matters are handled case-by-case, sometimes with local co-counsel. Ask during intake — Arvand will tell you if the case is a fit or refer you to someone closer to your court.

• What should I bring to my first meeting with Arvand?

  Bring every document that touches the dispute: contracts, correspondence, police or medical reports, filed pleadings, invoices, photographs, insurance letters. Also bring a written timeline of what happened, in your own words. Arvand will filter what matters — over-preparing at intake is always cheaper than needing a second meeting.

• Is Arvand accepting new asylum clients right now?

  Arvand's intake status shifts week to week. Submit the form; the office will confirm availability or refer the matter out.
